-    sphinx.ext.refcounting
-    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
-    Supports reference count annotations for C API functions.  Based on
-    refcount.py and anno-api.py in the old Python documentation tools.
-
-    Usage: Set the `refcount_file` config value to the path to the reference
-    count data file.
